🐾 Blog Title: Why We Wrote “Fletcher Rolls On” — Teaching Kids to Embrace Differences


At Bark & Books, every story we write is inspired by a real rescue dog with a message that matters. Our newest book, Fletcher Rolls On, is no different. Fletcher is a special pup who was paralyzed when he was rescued, but thanks to a wheelchair and a whole lot of love, he now zooms around like a champ.

And while this book isn’t out just yet, we’re thrilled to announce it’s coming soon—expected by the end of the month!


🌟 Fletcher’s Real-Life Inspiration

When Fletcher came into rescue care, he had already suffered more than most dogs ever should. But what stood out wasn’t his injury—it was his determination to live a full, happy life. We knew right away that kids could learn something beautiful from him: resilience, acceptance, and joy in the face of adversity.


🧠 Why Kids Need Stories Like Fletcher’s

In classrooms and homes, children are learning to navigate differences—whether it's a classmate with a disability, a foster sibling, or their own unique challenges. Fletcher helps start the conversation in a gentle, heartwarming way.

Our goal is simple:
To teach kindness
To promote inclusion
And to remind kids that we all roll through life in different ways


📖 A Book with a Mission

Just like all our books, Fletcher Rolls On supports our rescue partner, Small But Mighty Rescue, and shares a portion of proceeds with them. We want every page to reflect our belief that stories can spark change—not just in how we treat animals, but in how we treat each other.


💬 Want to Help?

If you're a teacher, librarian, or parent, we’d love for you to bring Fletcher’s story to your classroom or community when it's released. You can:

  • Sponsor a teacher to receive the book and plushy
  • Follow us on Instagram, TikTok, or LinkedIn
  • Share this story with someone raising a kind, compassionate child

Let’s roll forward with love—just like Fletcher.
